Cool

Hello

I was the nutter who wondered up to you on the car deck

Sorry if I appeared a bit of an escapee from the local asylum but when I see another scooby owner it is the done thing to go and say hello...even if we were in my partner's French plate'd Clio

Anyway, that's one nice standard Dark Blue Mica UK turbo 2000 you've got there

Cheers, Jon

How do Si

I used to have a Dark Blue Sport but I now have a silver Bugeye WRX with pimp tints

If Insurance is an issue, get yourself a Sport for a year or so until you are 21 then get a turbo...don't be put off by them sports, mine had 131 BHP, they are still 4WD and you can always put turbo bucket seats, spoiler and bonnet scoop on them

Check these links out:

Cheers, Jon

You can get all your bumpers, skirts, bonnets, lowering springs and other bits and bobs either from the for sale section on here or, better still, go and visit Town End Garage in Warton, near Carnforth...be careful though as he has Imported turbos for sale from £6000 and full Group A rally cars from £25,000

All the local Scooby owners have not bought there exhausts from westgate tyres....I'll leave that up to you to work out why. Plenty of second hand good ones in the scoobynet for sale section though

Yer, i know where town end garage is!

Im off to the Autosport show on thursday (Trade day) so im gonna go have a look around see what new bits there is!

Hopefully anything i want to buy i can get at cost price, because my bezzie mate who's also after a scooby, his dad owns a race team!

Yer i might do that actually.. My mates trying to persuade his dad to get trade insurance for the Race team i think. Theyre based in Heysham, so if he can , my mate will be gettin a WRX or maybe even an STi i think! Jelousy is an understatement!
